🫐 New Year is coming soon all over the world
We decided it would be fun to share our New Year family traditions with each other.
🇷🇺 We'll start with Russia, and you can join in in the comments:
🎄 New Year's tree: Putting up a Christmas tree is one of the main traditions. The tree is decorated with toys, garlands and tinsel. In recent years, eco-friendly decorations have also become popular.
🎅 Father Frost and Snow Maiden: Father Frost, the symbol of the New Year holidays, comes with gifts, and his granddaughter Snegurochka helps him. They often participate in New Year's parties and celebrations.
🍾 New Year's table: It is customary to set a rich table with a variety of dishes for the New Year. Olivier salad, herring under a fur coat, tangerines and champagne are obligatory.
🚚 Making wishes: At midnight, many make wishes. It is believed that if you write a wish on paper, burn it and throw it into a glass of champagne, it will come true.
🎄 Old New Year: January 14 marks the Old New Year, which is a continuation of the New Year's celebrations. Many families gather at the table and celebrate it with the same traditions.
These traditions create a special festive atmosphere and unite people in anticipation of the New Year.
